Brutal Behest
Excellent piece! From aroilinpain.wordpress.com.
Her invitation came
Addressed with snark and fury.
“Welcome to my chaos!”,
She offered as her greeting.
“Swim awhile, here with me
Among this drifting wreckage,
Floating fragments of dreams and plans,
Hopes and wishes for my shattered life.”
She served this raging petit four;
Smallest sliver of her misery
With a bitter aperitif, piercing my heart
In its acrid headward rush.
Did she hope to whet my appetite
With her caustic bread; cordial bile?
In truth, I find her burden
Shared is less a burden lessened;
But more a sorrow spread.
“Here is my vast, crass repast!
Will you savor with me?”

Donald Trump: America’s New Role Model
My friend keeps hitting home runs.
Parenting isn’t easy, it never has been. That said, we parents today have a few challenges previous generations didn’t have. One such challenge can be explained using the example of the item at the top of my list of parenting goals. My priority has always been to teach my children ethics: the differnce between right and wrong, respecting people’s differences, having compassion, putting in an honest hard day’s work, owning your mistakes, remaining humble, do unto others…etc.
It helps to use examples when making a point: people who have achieved high status by following these basic principals of ethics. Any examples of successful ethical people today have been overshadowed by one person who demonstrates that ethics aren’t necessary to succeed. By my title, you should know of whom I speak.
The lesson we learn from our current “president” is that to succeed in 2017, we must apply a different set…

What Did Trump Do Today?
alotfromlydia.wordpress.com knocked this one out of the park.
Let’s all try to stay calm. A Russian spy ship sits 30 miles from the Navy’s primary East Coast NavalSubmarine Base in New London, Connecticut, and an armed Russian warplane recently carried out a “mock attack” against a US Navy ships in the Red Sea—this after Russia violated an arms control treaty by deploying cruise missiles. The Navy is “keeping a close eye on it.”
To be fair, the U.S. Navy conducts similar intelligence-gathering operations against Russian military targets, such as its submarine bases, from international waters, however, the U.S. hasn’t deployed any missiles. A member of theHouseSeapower and Projection Forces Subcommittee, Rep Joe Courtney D-Conn., said recent Russian activity is “unacceptable, aggressive action … clearly testing theresolve of a new administration.”
What is Trump doing anyway?
To be honest with you, I can’t watch him. I’d rather read a transcript than listen to his contemptible voice.

Putin Fires Missile, Trump Tweets About Hillary
Great piece by alotfromlydia.wordpress.com.
Vladimir Putin, in violation of an arms control treaty, secretly deployed of one of his new cruise missiles yesterday. This is a test Donald Trump is failing. Nordstrom got a response for dropping Ivanka’s clothing, but Russia and North Korea both fire missiles – nada.
He can’t be bothered with missile launches. Rather than deal with that, he’s still blathering about the November election.
Questions about who knew what when and how much and by whose orders, are questions that should have been asked months ago. Allegations of contact between Trump’s team and Russia had been brought as far back as the presidential debates. The information is not new. Phones were tapped. The FBI had this information as it was happening.
On January 29, 2017, Sally Yates, acting Attorney General warned White House officials that intercepted communications contradicted Mr. Flynn’s account of his phone call with Russian officials. Mr. Trump…
